Low Brake Fluid

I went to Mr Lube to get an oil change, and they told me my brake fluid is low. They can't do anything about that there, but they told me to go to Honda to get that delt with. I only have 25,000 km's on my car, how can the brake fluid be low? I thought it didn't go low, it just needs to be replaced after like 90,000km's. Could it be the way I drive, or is it just an internal thing, maybe a leak in the piping?

Whats the condition of the brake fluid? If its black or dark in color, your fluid might be contaminated. If its just low, add some approved Honda brake fluid.
